This cold and crunchy side salad is a great one to bring to a potluck. It makes enough for 10-12 people.

Ingredients

1 pound bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing

1 cup red and/or green seedless grapes, halved

1/2cup finely chopped red onion

1/4cup sugar

7 cups fresh broccoli florets (1 large head)

Directions

In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Drain bacon on paper towels and set aside.

In a large bowl, stir together mayonnaise, grapes, red onion and sugar. Add broccoli and two-thirds of the bacon; stir to coat. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours. Store remaining cooked bacon, covered, in the refrigerator. Sprinkle remaining bacon over salad just before serving. Makes 10 to 12 side-dish servings.
